Does it? When I hear real music (J) and want a score (S), I either transcribe it into LilyPond (L) by hand, or look for a printed score from a publisher, or look at sources like IMSLP or CPDL for a download. > I was thinking of a new feature for users - > Allowing them to create a new music. That's what I call composition, but somehow I don't think that's what you're talking about. "New music" isn't in my list of definitions so you need to define what you mean by it. > With notations, it would be new and innovative way, which can catch > everyone's attention. That statement doesn't say whether the notations (again, not in my list) are new or the music is new, nor what you mean by "new". > On Thu, Mar 7, 2019, 11:59 PM Urs Liska <li...@openlilylib.org> wrote: > > Am 7.

Both steps need manual proofreading. I'm happy with the proofreading: I can proofread by ear (using process S→(software)→XML→L→M) much more easily than I can type from S→L. But I don't know of any FOSS programs to fill that (software) slot.
